The little “italian” in me

Okay, okay… so maybe I’m not REALLY an italian, but every two weeks or so my family swears that I am when I make my home-made spaghetti. First off, I just want to warn you, that this recipe is nothing ultra special. It is just the plain ol’ spaghetti sauce recipe that I grew up...

Thank you for sharing your love story. It truely touched my heart and was also comforting in the fact that all of us women cry……….alot!! lol. I’m not alone. Thank goodness! It’s amazing the power that faith in god has on all of us. You have a beautiful family and such a gift. Thank you! Kristy

Thank you for touching my heart. I don’t know why God puts us through different emotions and circumstances. Perhaps, to teach us that we may love deeper and cherish moments and not take blessings for granted, or so we can encourage others and have true compassion for someone who has similar struggles, OR to bring us closer to Him without the distractions that were keeping us from seeking Him. I know when we live for God, He will bless us with the desires of our hearts. My dear, he has indeed blessed you.Thank you for your willingness to share your love story, thank you for touching my heart but most of all, thank you for being a beautiful child of God!
Much Love,
Cindy

Awe thank you for sharing Marin! Do you remember the first time we met? I do, and I loved you both so much from that moment on and I would ALWAYS ask Dave about you and hope that this story didn’t end. You both are so wonderful and I am so happy that love persevered. You really do have one of those Nicholas Sparks love story’s :) <3 Gytahnna
PS – Our wedding anniversary is October 11th!

So beautiful and touching Marin, I am glassy-eyed and choked up. I love hearing people’s stories. You’re lucky, I hope you get to read a bunch of incredible ones! And whoever wins will be lucky to get YOU! I wish my love story of 10 years didn’t start, “so there was this kegger in college”… ha ha. ♥

heather - June 30, 2010 - 10:45 pm

Aww Marin, this is such a beautiful story. I think there no matter the time and distance, those loved ones that are meant to be in our lives will be there. Such an inspiration to not worry about having someone just to have someone, but to know that all the pieces will fall into place.

So beautiful, and so happy for you <3
